With a new album due out soon and a newlywed glow, singer Monica has a lot to look forward to, but one thing she’s not prepping for is the birth of a baby.

Despite rumors that the “Until It’s Gone” singer was concealing a baby bump, Monica revealed that she and hubby Shannon Brown are content with their family of five for now.
